About this publication

Wild Law weaves politics, legal theory, quantum physics and ancient wisdom into a fascinating and inspiring story about how to rediscover a viable role for the human species within the Earth community. This ground-breaking book has been seminal in inspiring the global movement to recognise rights for Nature – a movement destined to shape the 21st Century as significantly as the human rights movements shaped the 20th Century. 
 

This revised second edition includes a new preface, postscript and the Universal Declaration of the Rights of Mother Earth proclaimed on 22nd April 2010 by the People's World Conference on Climate Change and the Rights of Mother Earth. 
 
Cormac Cullinan's Wild Law 2nd edition represents a foundational break in legal thinking about the environment and thus the preservation of our planet. Manifestly it deserves a far wider audience than the legal community, but it is work that must be read by lawyers working in the field and by law students at law schools. It poses a major challenge to the tired prevailing legal discourse.
